AdBlue & SCR Diagnostics in Sunbury-on-Thames

Selective catalytic reduction uses AdBlue to cut NOx emissions on modern diesels. When the system detects a fault, it often starts a countdown to prevent restarting — which needs dealing with promptly.

We diagnose and repair SCR systems legitimately: tanks, pumps, heaters, injectors and NOx sensors.

Common signs

Symptoms worth checking

  • AdBlue warning
  • ‘No start in X miles’ countdown
  • NOx sensor faults
  • AdBlue crystals around the dosing injector

What parts of an SCR system can fail

Tank heaters and pumps, level and quality sensors, dosing injectors, NOx sensors and the SCR catalyst itself. Contaminated or crystallised AdBlue causes many issues.

Topping up won’t clear a fault-based countdown; diagnosis is needed.
